First Sled Experience = 50% Damage Rate

This Saturday Matt, Wade, Reed and I took our sleds out to Vail Pass (Schmidty's sled was still in the shop getting ready for the season).  It was the first time on a snowmobile for all of us except for Reed so he showed us the ropes.  Let just say we got a little aggressive for our first time out because Wade and Reed ended up having to pick us up in Red Cliff with 2 broken sleds.  Matt hit a rock and broke his suspension within the first hour and I broke my entire ski leg off...

Got a little out of control and hopped off praying that my Honey Bee wouldn't crash into the tree...just missed it.

We went to Red Cliff for a beer; that town is awesome. We ended up visiting twice...not by choice.

The 'field of dreams' we called it. A hidden gem with powder (and hidden rocks) for days.  

Yep, completely broke off after hitting a big rock...luckily I used gravity to still drive it slowly and get back to Red Cliff.

Reed about to chop down his Christmas tree...

Wade thinking he caught big air.
